The Binghamton  Mets could not hold a 6-3 lead in the late innings today (Sunday) and dropped a 7-6 decision to the Hartford Yard Goats at NYSEG Stadium.  With the win the Yard Goats earned a split in the four-game series. Binghamton falls to ten games under the .500 mark at 41-51.  The Yard Goats move to 50-42.

Binghamton had a big two-out rally in the bottom of the seventh inning and erased a 3-2 deficit to move up to a 6-3 lead. The big blow in the rally came from Victor Cruzado who drove in a pair of runs with a double.  The Yard Goats countered with three runs in their half of the eighth inning to tie it at 6-6. Noel Cuevas hit a pinch-hit RBI single in the top of the ninth off Logan Taylor to put Hartford up 7-6.  That proved to be the decisive run as Matt Carasiti sent the B-Mets down in order in the bottom of the ninth to clinch it.  He earned his 27th save of the season....tops in the Eastern League.

Binghamton remains home Monday night to begin a three-game series against the Bowie Baysox in a 6:35 game.  Broadcast time is set for 6:20 PM on News Radio 1290 WNBF.
